Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Beware a girl in pointy shoes!
A girl wearing pointy shoes might be a witch. And the first thing a spook's apprentice learns is never, ever to trust a witch.
In this bone-chilling collection of tales, you will learn exactly why that is, as you encounter:
a fair and beautiful woman with green scales running down her spine . . . a dead witch who lurks under rotting leaves and hunts for blood . . . Alice, Tom Ward's best friend, who once lived with one of the darkest witches of all . . . and a witch whose cry of revenge can kill.The dark is all around. Who will survive?
Includes an excerpt from the author's "The last apprentice, book seven: rise of the huntress" (p. 197-224)
Originally published in London by Bodley Head as Witches in 2009.
Meg Skelton -- Dirty Dora -- Alice and the brain guzzler -- The banshee witch.
Separate tales reveal the backgrounds of four terrifying witches, including Alice and the Spook's love, Meg.
Age 10-up.
